May: National Masturbation Month and the #OrgasmDiet



Today, my loves, is May 1st. Today marks the beginning of National Masturbation Month and the un-official start to the enjoyment of outdoor sexual escapades. 






Don't forget to excersize your wrists before partaking in any strenuous activities ;)


May also happens to be a stellar time to begin a new diet... The Orgasm Diet. Now, this is a diet that I feel anyone can follow. Basically the idea is to eat your three (or five, or whatever you need) balanced meals a day but replace snacks and unhealthy cravings with orgasms. For example: It's ten o'clock at night. I'm craving that homemade chocolate chip cookie that is whispering my name from the kitchen. Instead, I walk to my bedroom, grab my Salsa, and achieve orgasm. I no longer crave the chocolate chip cookie, now I just want a glass of water and to drag my husband into bed with me. I just saved myself unnecessary calories by avoiding the cookie, burned calories with an orgasm, and swapped the taste for chocolate for a taste of my man. Win-win in my book. Now, sit back and think about how many unnecessary calories you can avoid and how much your libedo could be rejuvenized. 

Feel free to take part in the Orgasm Diet and tweet your progress using #OrgasmDiet and feel free to post here and let me know how you are doing. Now, to find my scale...

TMI Tuesday: The Amateur Detective


The Amateur Detective

TMI_detective


1) Did you ever find someone else’s stash of sex toys, lubes, etc.?

I was one of those nosy, pain-in-the-ass teenagers and went through my parents stuff. Once upon a time... I came across my parents play drawer. Let's just say that it changed my perception of them to a degree.

2) Did you ever search someone else’s computer to determine their porn habits? Were you ever the object of such a search?

I have had several friends that would look for the strangest or kinkiest porn we could find and shared it with one another, but I have never purposely searched someone else's computer for their porn habits. I have looked to see some of the porn vids my husband occasionally watches but I don't do it in a nosy way. Is there any way to make that sound believable? I look out of curiosity to see his preferences for future surprise porn purchases. And that is the honest to heavens truth! (Now I sound worse for being so protective...)

3) Did you ever investigate to see if two people were getting it on?

When I was younger I would check on my friends if there was noise, but mostly I stayed away.

4) Did you ever look for naughty pictures on someone else’s phone?

Yes. I have ex's that cheated on me and others that have had photos of their ex's still on their phones. I don't just pick up someone else's phone and start going through their personal stuff.

5) Were you ever involved with an investigation (formal or informal) into whether someone was cheating on his/her lover?

I don't believe so. I have given friends a heads-up if I saw something out of the ordinary with their significant other, but I have never gone out of my way to investigate a situation.

Bonus: Do you have a secret online identity so that you can find a secret lover?

No. I write under a pen-name but I am in a monogamous relationship and not interested in finding a lover.

LSG Touch: Mia Egg & Lucy Necklace



PACKAGING:

These beautiful natural stone products both arrived to me in matching embroidered bags, encased together in a sheer bag. Attached was a lovely card with the LSG Touch logo and contact information. Also included in my box was a pamphlet on how to use and care for these products.

MATERIAL/TEXTURE:

Mia is an egg-shaped kegel tool made of south china jade. In this instance the term south china jade refers to the mineral Nephrite, which is a non-porous, extremely durable, but easily scratched natural stone. The pure, natural stones are created free of any chemical or synthetic substances, so these are natural as natural gets! Mia is strung with an extremely strong, braided string and glass beads. The string on each Mia is tested with a 7 pound pull before being approved for use. Mia is completely smooth with no noticeable drag, smell, or taste.

Lucy is an open ended necklace with round, thai turquoise pendants on either end. She is strung with the same strong, braided string as Mia, with glass bead accents. The pendants are very smooth to the touch.



 SIZE:

My Mia measures 2 1/4 inches long, with a diameter of 1 1/4" at the thickest and about 1/2" at the smallest part of the taper. The string is 5 inches long and there are 32 beads strung along the length.

Lucy is a full 42 1/2 inches from end to end. The stone pendants both have diameters of 1 1/2", and the string between them is 39 1/2" with alternating bead sizes and colors . This is plenty of room to wrap it as a choker or find some other interesting way to wear Lucy.

 FUNCTION:

Mia is a natural stone kegel tool. A kegel is the practise of contracting and relaxing the muscles of the pelvic floor. These are the same muscles used to stop and start the flow of urine. Kegeling can be used to reduce urinary incontinence and to increase the length and intensity of orgasms.

Lucy is designed as a breast stimulator. The pendants hang in a way to stimulate blood flow in the breast tissue. The pendants can also be used as a part of foreplay, or as a tool while performing your monthly breast exam.



 PERFORMANCE:

I have been using Mia for a little over a month and have already noticed a difference in the strength of my kegels. I cannot honestly say that I have noticed any difference in the intensity of my orgasms, but that will be different for everyone. Mia is super easy to pop in and she can be worn anywhere while doing anything. My favorite time to use Mia is when I am going about my house chores. The string makes it very easy to remove and a quick wash under the faucet and she is ready for the next time.

Lucy is not only a beautiful piece of jewelry, but it is also functional. I have used this necklace during my monthly breast exam, as a statement accessory, and also as a general massage tool. A little bit of massage oil and these pendants slip and slide across the skin with no problem. While wearing Lucy as jewelry, the pendants gently rub across the nipple and breast in a subtly erotic way that kept my mind ever-so-slightly in the gutter all day. It was a fun little secret I kept all to myself.



CLEANING:

DO NOT BOIL THESE PRODUCTS. Mia and Lucy can both be cleaned using a mild antibacterial soap and warm water and sanitized by wiping it down with alcohol. Boiling the natural stone can irreparably damage these products.

 LUBE:

I would suggest only using water based lubes when needed. Too much lubrication on Mia will cause her to be incredibly difficult to keep in place. I personally have not tested any type of lubricants on these products because I do not plan to use them. I have used massage oil on my Lucy and have noticed no problems, but I cannot guarantee the same results for anyone else. These are natural materials and it would be wise to research any interactions before using a new product on them.



POSITIVES:

Mia is an excellent tool for kegel exercise, and Lucy has multiple potential uses. These are completely natural products with no chemical or thermal alteration, and no synthetic polish of any kind. These products are as close to nature as you can get. Each product also comes with a matching embroidered storage bag.

NEGATIVES:

The jade that Mia is made of is easily scratched, although difficult to break. This can be solved by storing it in the included storage bag when not in use.

 STORAGE:

LSG Touch includes a beautiful, matching embroidered bag with each of the products sent out. They are closed by a simple drawstring, and they stay securely closed. This makes both Lucy and Mia very travle friendly. They can be carted along in your purse, left out on your nightstand, or tossed in your luggage without worrying about them being damaged in any way.




PERSONAL COMMENTS:

I have been doing kegels since puberty, but they became very important to me after I gave birth. During labor I experienced a uterine prolapse. Basically, my uterus exited my body with the afterbirth, and had to be repositioned inside of my body. This is a potentially life-threatening birth complication. I have had no issues since childbirth, and I attribute that, in part, to my continuing to perform kegel exercises  Using a tool, such as Mia, really helps me to focus on that part of my workout, and also provides a bit of a weight system for me to train my muscles. I would highly suggest a product such as the Mia to anyone, but especially those that may have some form of urinary incontinence.
